Inline On Press / Plan On Press Operations
You can mark a ‘section’ operation as part of an inline operation on the press.
The following options are found under the ‘Charge Options’ components:
Enable Inline Timing – This is for when you want the operation to be times individually from the print.
Inline with Press – This marks the operation to be capacity planned on the press the job will run on.
Combine Inline Makeready – This adds the makeready time into the press makeready time.
In this example we have the two operations, one for diecut and one for UV as inline on press:
You will see in the quote pricing grid, the inline operations are linked to the press. The makeready time is also a combination of the press makeready and the addition makeready from the operations. The speed is taken from the slowest speed set on the added operations:
On the job, only the ‘Printing’ needs to be timed:
When capacity planning, there is only the printing operation. The inline operation details show at the bottom of the tag:
PLAN ON PRESS
You can also mark an operation as ‘Plan on Press’ via the checkbox in the ‘Production Options’:
This then adds as a separate operation to the job details:
It splits the main print from the ‘Washup’ and keeps the operations separate for timing and planning:
